Event Update For 2017-12-22





The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.



A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

  1. Big ups to alla reggae bands performing last night at the Christmas party! Lead off by well-liked local folk-rock band Kicking Down Doors, the three reggae bands played til 2 a.m. First up was The Rootsetters, followed by the large band Trouble City All-Stars (great horn section) and the headliner Jah People took the crowd out.

    The number of buildings burning is astounding. Long lists every day of apartments, barns, homes, showrooms, vacant structures, and warehouses all going up in flames, often killing unattended pets, people and farm animals, while destroying valuable property.

    Alt media journalist arrested, charged with felonies for breaking story before local news
    https://www.sott.net/article/372183-Alt-media-journalist-arrested-charged-with-felonies-for-breaking-story-before-local-news

    If you report a story before the police department is scheduled to release it to local media, you can and will be arrested and charged with a felony. For those that seek proof that alternative media is under attack, one needn't look any further than the case of Priscilla Villarreal.

    Villarreal runs an alternative media platform out of Laredo and operates it on a news page on Facebook called LaGordiloca. Earlier this month, Villarreal was arrested and charged with two counts of "misuse of official information," a third-degree felony for operating that page.

    As Texas Monthly reports, Villarreal, 32, turned herself in to Laredo police on December 13 after being charged with two felony counts of "misuse of official information," stemming from her reporting on a Border Patrol agent's suicide last April. Villarreal denies that she did anything illegal, and her attorney says the police department is simply trying to silence her because it does not like the way she reports. She often swears while she narrates her live-streamed footage, and she sometimes captures graphic images. She has been known to verbally spar with police officers in public. [more]

    An arid end to 2017 in US as drought sets in

    U.S. Drought Risk Rising as a Second La Niña Winter Kicks In
    http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/12/an-arid-end-to-2017-in-us-as-drought.html

    The odds of widespread U.S. drought are going up as we head into 2018, thanks in part to the presence of a second consecutive winter of La Niña conditions. New research suggests that the second year of a multi-year La Niña event might, on average, bring more widespread U.S. drought than the first. [more]

    Peak Oil 'disproved'? : Big drop in new oil discoveries

    Of course there’s ‘plenty’ of oil (even it is in the form whereby we have to fry the planet to get it) and we’re moving in a nice orderly manner away from an oil-based economy.

    Peak Oil is just a theory that has been 'proved wrong'.

    That is the kind of bullshit we are being fed just about every day.

    The bitcoin crash

    BITCOIN CRASH: Plunges 45% In 5 Days… How Low Will It Go?
    http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/12/the-bitcoin-crash.html

    The Bitcoin Crash has finally taken place as the king of cryptocurrencies plunged a staggering 45% from its record high in just five days.  On December 17th, Bitcoin reached a peak of $19,800 but fell to a low of 10,887 in early market trading today.  However, the Bitcoin price has recovered from its lows and is now trading at $13,500.

    So, the big question to all the Bitcoin investors and crypto traders….. Will the market recover or will the crash continue?  Well, if we go by charts that show assets moving up in a straight line, I believe we are going to see much lower prices.  I don’t know if it will take days, weeks or months… but lower it will go.
